Machcha - I guess it is the short form of Mahesh and Charanya.
I knew lot of people visit my blog from Bangalore on a regular basis. One such buddy asked me to listen to this Machcha movie song and asked me to review. I told him I am a tamilian and I dont know kannada but I would love to listen to this music and review it. To my surprise, all the songs I heard from this movie are super duper hits. I immediately googled for the music Directors name and found it was ARJUN and I guess he is supposed to be the A.R.Rehman of Kannada. Terrific Effort Arjun. You are on to stay for a long time ! The movie has six songs.
1. fanaa fanaa - Kunal kanjawala, Sunidhi Chauhan
this song opens with "uthista uthishta govinda" which is very stylish. good choice of singers. fanaa is a catchy word and makes us to hum this tune frequently. Superb rhtymic beats for this melody song ! I like the portion where fanaa comes frequently also ole ole. Starting & End fanaaa sunidhi chauhan excel ! We have heard lot of Kunals song in Hindi, Tamil and it is interesting to listen to Kunal in Kannada. As usual kunal rocks !
2. machcha - title song - Arjun
Looks like Hero image building song ! Through out the song Excellent sounds generated ! Macha Macha sound enters your left year and comes out in your right ear :-) Good surround sound ! I like this piece " Macha macha this man is called the macho man. Macha macha this musical sound sa ni pa ma pa ma cha" Arjun Really Rocks ! Superb Arjun. You have excellent rocking voice. No wonder people started calling you as A.R.Rehman of Kannada ! He is asking us to Rock it at the end of the song ! Come on Guys, Lets Rock it Man !!
3. neeli neeli - shaan & shreya ghoshal
another melody song with good rhythmic beats. It is pleasant to listen to shreya ghoshal's voice in this song ! These kind of songs are cake walk to her ! Shaan as usual Excels. Again good sounds are generated in between pallavi and charanams ! I would say high quality musical melody and makes you to keep listening to this song repeatedly. I like shaans delivery of "bandhaakidhae" and shreya's "nindaakidhae" !
4. songu shuru dance shuru - shankar mahadevan
I never knew kannada music people will like folk song this much ! Shankar Mahadaven Rocks in this "kuthu" type folk song ! I like that gana gana ganapathy and gaja gaja gajapathy ! You play this song and it is imminent that your Leg will shake automatically without your permission. That is the magic of this song. In between instead of using "songu shuru dance shuru" Arjun has muted that place and filled in with some interesting sounds immediately followed by Shankar Mahadevan's Ganapathy vandha roadikae. That really shows Arjun's creativity ! Good use of violin bits which is awesome ! Shankar Mahadevan with various modulation of his voice ROCKs in this song !! I am big fan of Shankar Mahadevan and this particular song is like a FEAST to me ! Good One Arjun !!
5. vasi vasi - malathi
Another interesting folk type FAST number. The opening notes are too good. Malathi who struck gold with her "manmadha raasa" in Tamil comes back with Bang with one more superhit number "vasi vasi". The music in between Pallavi & Charanam is excellent. The chorus portion adds fun to this fast paced song. I like that Building & Binladen, Computer & Virus, Signal & Cell phone comparison ! Charanam starts melodiously and suddenly that fast beats. Wow !! Too good. Arjun is Rocking Man !! This song I would say will be in Malathi's Top 5 song. I would love to see this song visually ! Malathy & Arjun's power packed dance number ! As of now both this song as well as Shankar mahadevan's song I had heard maximum number of times.
6. yaaro preethi - rajesh krishnan, k.s.chithra
Though I enjoyed Shankar Mahadevan's & Malathi's mass number, I would say this song is my PICK of the ALBUM. A superb melody beautifully sung by Rajesh Krishnan & our ever green K.S.Chithra !! This song is like pouring honey into your ears ! The song is such a soothing and pleasant to hear and also the sounds generated in this song ! The flute sound before the start of the second pallavi is too good. Rajesh Krishnans end notes are simply superb ! Rajesh & Chithra, Arjun are rocking once again !!
VIVEKS' PUNCH : MACHCHA - BAHUT ACHCHA :-)
Just GRAB this AUDIO CD wherever you are and enjoy all the songs ! Some Albums are Collectors Edition and this one is a must if you are music lovers! After hearing the songs, Now I am excited to see this Movie to know how all the songs are picturised ! Thank you bangalore buddy for recommeding this Movie ! I thoroughly enjoyed. When a tamilian like me can enjoy this album this much, I can imagine how all kannadigas would have enjoyed this album.
I wish good luck for the entire MACHCHA Team and specially to ARJUN - The show Stealer !
